two shots a round/fifty rounds a magazine

At a well-to-do speakeasy in Prohibition era Chicago, 26 year old Theodore Decker runs into a well-dressed man with a passion for drinking—a man that would soon whisk him away into the seedy underbelly of the White City.

the return of will byers

The Party teams up to take down Vecna, but they hit an obstacle—Vecna’s Curse. Forgotten traumas, regrets, and abilities resurface as their time runs out.

neptune's ocean

Pippa is a lesbian, and Theo doesn’t care—until she brings up Boris.

the one where will finds out

After getting too drunk during a date-gone wrong, Mike reveals to a taken Will that he's in love with him.

strangely coexisting

After Hawkins splits in two, the Byers family are left functionally homeless. Thankfully, the Wheelers (well, Mike Wheeler, to be specific) invite them to stay at their house. Sitcom shenanigans ensue as the two families learn to coexist in the same space.

you're moving much too fast (you know you can't escape the past)

It’s September 3rd, 1971, and Will can’t wait to start fresh at Columbia—that is, until he discovers that his randomly assigned roommate is the one and only Mike Wheeler, who he’d done his best to forget. Buried feelings and unaddressed tension resurface as the boys navigate their first two years of college.

must be a devil between us

Boris is bipolar. Theo attempts to understand.

a lot of people assume psychosis hallucinations are super intense all-consuming horror movie shit like the memes about the hat man or always horrible debilitating things that make you dangerous to be around

but in my experience 95% of my hallucinations are getting spooked by very clearly hearing someone knocking on my door or calling my name from another room or hearing footsteps walking behind me which are "just" my brain recreating the horror of an abusive childhood

i *have* gotten the "bugs crawling all over me" hallucination once or twice though and yeah that one is exactly as terrible horrible as it sounds AUGH

[auramgold]

(not trying to put you on blast specifically, you're just a good example to jump off of)

media and pop culture hypes up psychosis a lot as The Worst That Can Happen out of sanism, so even when you try and filter that cultural bias out you still assume it's based on something

when, no, psychosis is actually very simple: it's just hyperactive pattern matching. it's your brain's signal-to-noise ratio being off balance, it's seeing images in random static. it's not always this special uniquely big thing, it's in fact quite mundane a lot of the time.

no one is immune to psychosis, it's not purely the realm of the insane. anyone is one bad night of sleep or one bad case of food poisoning or one bad fever away from being just like me on my worst days.

and this, indeed, is why solidarity with the insane is so important: you, yes you too, are just one bad day from joining us, and no perceptions of being a "temporarily embarrassed sane person" will save you from the oppression of the psychiatric institution.

Your daughter murdered Lottie. It explains the DNA evidence, and moreover, she confessed to it, so.

Something I absolutely love is not caving into the pressure of "you HAVE to watch popular gay show the writing is actually competent and they won't ruin it this time" and being like "hmmm I don't know... I watched popular gay show before and it turned bad..." only to much later get your door knocked on and it's your mutuals crestfallen and you get to be like "let me guess. it turned bad."
